La République En Marche!

En Marche! is a liberal political party in France that was founded on 6 April 2016 by former Socialist Party of France and independent politician Emmanuel Macron, who had once served as Minister of the Economy and Finance. Macron was a supporter of the European Union and sought to protect the interests of big business in politics, attracting supporters from both the left and right. Macron's goal was to create a transpartisan organization that was united in its progressivism, and he was able to make it to the second round of the 2017 presidential election after passing the first round on 23 April.
